9:05 p.m. - * It's just after 9 p.m. and with 28% of the vote in, Hulshof leads Steelman 49%-44%. Much of Kansas City, St. Louis, and far SW Missouri is still not in. Newton county just came in for Hulshof.
9:10 p.m. - * The AP has just called the Republican Lt. Governor's race for Peter Kinder. Duh!
9:25 p.m. - * Lawrence County has gone for Sarah Steelman. Brad DeLay won the sheriff's race there as well.
* Webster county has also gone for Steelman.
9:30 p.m. - * Barton county has gone for Hulshof. It appears that unless the Kansas City numbers are huge, Steelman will lose the primary.
* Barry County has chosen Jim Fohn as the Republican county cororner, in what many call an upset. Also, incumbent Mick Epperly has been selected to represent the Republican party in the fall for sheriff.
9:35 p.m. - * It appears that Richard Monroe will be the Democrat who will face off against Roy Blunt in the November election for the 7th Congression US House seat. He leads 77%-22% over his opponent.
* St. Charles County has finished reporting, and now leaves Steelman about 15,000 votes behind Hulshof. Still not a lot of the Kansas City metro has reported.
9:50 p.m. - * Ken Copeland has won the Republican Sheriff Primary in Newton county.
* Hulshof has picked up Jasper county.
* It appears that Chris Koster may run away with the Democratic nomination for Attorney General. This has to be concerning to the Democrats since he has been a Democrat for less than a year.
9:55 p.m. - * Here comes the Lawrence County showdown once again. Incumbent Don Ruzicka has defeated Pierce City mayor Mark Peters by a substantial margin to once again take on "Doc" Dake in the 132nd State Rep. race in November.
* Chad Livengood of the Springfield News-Leader just reported that US Senator Kit Bond has reported that he believes Hulshof will ultimately carry the 7th Congressional District. We shall see when all the votes are in.
